Zywave enhances BrokerageBuilder email encryption with RPost
Leading agency management system chooses RPost for secure RFP delivery

Milwaukee, WI — September 5, 2012

Facts
• Today, Zywave, Inc. announced a partnership with vendor RPost for encrypting requests for proposal (RFPs) sent via email through BrokerageBuilder, its industry-leading agency management system.
• The switch to RPost represents a significant enhancement in functionality, with a number of benefits for both insurance agency users of BrokerageBuilder and carrier contact recipients of RFPs.
— RPost can be used to deliver documents electronically in compliance with HIPAA standards relating to the security of electronic personal health information (PHI).
— RPost offers an extremely simple, user-friendly process for accessing encrypted emails that fits into normal workflows. Carrier contacts will not have to register or remember login credentials—yet the RFP remains securely protected with a password that is sent directly to the recipient’s email inbox for easy access. Plus, there are no special browser or system requirements—only an up-to-date PDF viewer is needed.
— Account managers can prove email delivery and content with a legally verifiable Registered Receipt™ for each encrypted RFP email they send.
— RPost also allows recipients to easily send secure replies back to the original sender of the email, for ultimate security partnered with ease of use.
